[Wei Wuxian probably ends up eating basically all of what Lan Wangji cooked. by the time Lan Wangji rises to wash up he's actually unbent enough that - should Wei Wuxian not wall it off himself - it's possible to very dimly sense what he's feeling again through their bond. the verdict might be "pleased, in his quiet way."]

[laughitoff]

[Wei Wuxian is actually relaxed enough to let his own walls down a little; Lan Wangji can vaguely feel his purring pleasure back, the simple easy content of being full and rested and relatively at peace, something that's been rare enough in the last few years that it feels novel and wonderful]

[strikingchords]

[he loves that a lot!!!!!!

settles on the couch after the cleanup is done to work on his notes, eminently interruptable if Wei Wuxian is tempted.]

[laughitoff]

[sticks his face over Lan Wangji's shoulder, predictably]

[strikingchords]

[it's just some notes on different mythical beasts; he's putting them in better order rather than doing anything more interesting tonight. looks coolly sidelong at his face, what, not actually annoyed despite his inscrutable expression]

[laughitoff]

Why divine beasts?

[strikingchords]

[considers]

Hm. Are you acquainted with Jonathan Sims?

[laughitoff]

We've talked a few times.

[strikingchords]

[inclines his head]

He is possessed by a dark beast. He wishes himself examined, but with precautions. I await his notes before planning.

[but he's doing a little cross checking first, obviously, in case it gives him an idea.]

[laughitoff]

[a faint amused noise]

Always finding the chaos, hmm?

[strikingchords]

[slightly dry]

Not difficult.

[laughitoff]

Not even here, that’s true. I get to run a delightful experiment with curses soon myself.

[strikingchords]

[glances at him again; yes, tell me more about your life]

[laughitoff]

Who would have thought, hmm? Someone asking me, the Yiling Patriarch, to actually cast curses on them! It’s so bad a joke that it’s funny!

[strikingchords]

[...frowns slightly...]

Rebound?

[laughitoff]

I’ll have help and wards, it’s fine.

[strikingchords]

Mm.

[|T... Wei Wuxian can feel the faint resigned aggravation through their bond, but as close as must be to Lan Wangji to put his chin over Lan Wangji's shoulder, he can also sense his subtle relaxation]

For what purpose?

[laughitoff]

The cursed party wants to see if his curse will even affect his would-be lover, since it’s meant to kill anyone he gets into a relationship with, but the lover might not be affected by its parameters.

[strikingchords]

[glance; that's interesting. it must be too complex to remove easily if that's the route Wei Wuxian is going with it.]

[laughitoff]

It’s on his whole family, and the grudge behind it is terribly strong. Even I would have some trouble lifting it!

[strikingchords]

Impossible to gather victims.

[it might be easier to figure out a way to lift the curse if everyone who was affected by it could be gathered together and they could work on the whole bloodline. unfortunately, it's hard enough to do this with an intergenerational curse even without being trapped in a weird city.]

[laughitoff]

Mm! But he’s more concerned with his own love life than in taking it off wholesale anyway, so that’s an easier direction to work with.

[strikingchords]

[nods, after judicious consideration

that's fair.]

Efficient.

[laughitoff]

You know me, famous for my efficiency.

[strikingchords]

[raises his eyebrows very, very slightly at him; Wei Wuxian gets an impression of faint amusement through the bond even if he doesn't quite see it on Lan Wangij's face]
